Every year for nine consecutive days in the Mexican town of Tultepek is the national pyrotechnic festival, which attracts not only producers and onlookers. Piromants make up a significant part of the contingent.

Apart from the usual amusement festivals, catering and other entertainments, all sorts of pyrotechnic shows remain the key event of the event. New York photographer Thomas Prior went to the festival and made some impressive shots. One of the most interesting entertainments is the competition "Castillos & raquo ;. Within 15 days, participants build whole locks of wood and paper. In this case, the lion's share of the structures are just pyrotechnic means. The structures installed on the platforms are sent along the streets of the city, chaotically exploding and sparkling with lights.
